Watched The Prowler last night. It is one of the slower slashers out there, but I still like it quite a bit. Interesting story, nice gore effects by Savini, and the acting was above par for a slasher. Oh, and the fat dude running the hotel makes me howl every time. What a lazy waste of space! :lol:

Child's Play: Chucky's 20th Birthday EditionSix-year-old Andy is thrilled when he gets a brand-new, cheery Chucky doll for his birthday. But he quickly discovers that Chucky is possessed by the soul of a notorious serial killer who swiftly begins terrorizing Andy, his ill-fated babysitter and his disbelieving mom. And he doesn't stop there. Proving he's nobody to toy with, the demonic doll schemes to transfer his evil spirit out of its "kid-friendly" container...and into Andy!

My Thoughts:
After 8 F13 movies I am getting a bit tired of Jason. Time to slip over to something else. So thought I would check out my newest DVD. I always enjoyed Child's Play. And we finally get a widescreen version of the movie! Not to mention a special edition with a lot of extras. The best part... I got to upgrade to it without it costing me anything! It has been a while since I seen this one... so was good to watch again. I really enjoyed it. I didn't get the chance to check out many of the extras yet though.

34. The Return Of The Living Dead part 2

The Mist (2007) Watched the B&W version. I guess one only needs to turn off the color from the Theatrical version to get the same? Still, pretty good monster flick that sort of benefits from B&W. One hell of a downer ending though. The Orphanage (2007) I was a bit underwhelmed, another case of hype partially sucking the fun out of my viewing. Enjoyed it even though it reminded me of The Others (2001). Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber Of Fleet Street (2007) My second attempt at a recent musical. I was nearly lynched for showing Hairspray once and this didn't fare any better. Not even the Johnny Depp & Tim Burton factor could make me and my guests sit through Sweeney Todd so I gave this another try tonight, on my own. To be honest I had to turn the volume down (way down) and the subtitles on. There was no other way for me to watch this. So yeah, Johnny and Helena looked like cyber-hippies, neat kills, great setting but why oh why had Sacha Baron Cohen to be in this? He is my most hated celebrity right after Justin Lumberflake. Can't say that I truly enjoyed this, but I didn't threw up either. "New" musicals just ain't my thing.​

HalloweenFifteen years ago, Michael Myers brutally massacred his sister. Now, after escaping from a mental hospital, he's back to relive his grisly crime again, and again...and again..

My Thoughts:
This is of course a classic horror that I must watch every year around this time. Usually on Halloween day like I did this year. This is of course the one that started it all... and finding out from one of the featurettes on the disc... a movie that was shot very quickly and cheaply. You would never know it watching the movie. I feel they all did an awesome job on this movie! It comes highly recommended by me!
